Makeup Monday: Makeup with or without Glasses


I’m frequently asked how my beauty routine changed when I started wearing glasses, but the truth is, it hasn’t. The amount of requests for “eye makeup you can wear with glasses” made me wonder if I was doing something wrong by not changing up my eye makeup. Truly, I just do my eye makeup and then put my glasses on…simple as that! The only thing I change when I wear glasses is the height of the color – I usually keep it only on the lid, not too far above the crease. But do away with color? Absolutely not! Who says you can’t wear color and glasses at the same time? Certainly not this girl.

I like this pairing of bold eyes and lips because they’re in the same color family, which makes it less distracting. It also takes about five minutes from start to finish, and can be done in the back of a cab. Hey, if I can put on liquid liner in a moving vehicle, you can pat a little eyeshadow on your lids and blend. I have faith in you! But really, it might be less stressful if you try this at home and not in the back of a cab. I only suggested it to emphasize how easy this look is. Look ma, no hands!
